Treatment of Burns.

Elizabeth r. scovil, in Good Housekeeping.
In serious burn, as soon as the fre is extin-
guished the clothes must be removed. If not
already thoroughly wet, the injured part should
be drenched with water and the clothes cut away.
Every thing must be sacrificed to getting them
off without pulling, the slightest dragging
brings the skin. too IF patches of the cloth
lowed to remain. Dip cloths in thick solution
of common baking soda in water and lay
them over the burnt surface, bandaging lightly
to keep them in place. AS soon as a dry
spot appears this dressing wet it with the
soda and water by squeezing some on it There
will be no smarting while it is saturated and ex-
cludes the air. If rubber sheet is not at hand,
piece of oil-eloth, a gossamer cloak,
or any waterproof article can be spread
on the bed with blanket over
it, to receive the sufferer. If the feet are
stimulant given if the pulse is weak The bed
covering should be warm and light A doctor
should be sent for as soon as possible. The grav-
ity of burn is in proportion to the
surface involved. A deep burn ia
much less serious than q superficial
one twice the size. Pain is good sign in severe
burns, it shows that there is still vitality TO suf-
fer Scalds can be treated in the same way. In
slight cases painting the surface with thick
mucilage will sometimes give relief, pouring
oil over it and then covering it with coating Of
-four ANYTHING that effectualy excludes the
air will relieve the pain. Persons suffering from
these accidents should have concentrated nour-
ishing food and as much of it as they can take
with ease. Nature has large repairs to make,
and must be provided with material to carry
them The doctor will prescribe opiates az
needed; it is not safe for unprofessional per-
| son to NEEDLE with them.

Shelter the Farm Stock.

j. 8. woodward, in New York Tribune.
Few realize how common is tho practice of
wintering farm animals outdoors unprotected
from storms, piercing winds or intense cold, nor
how intense is the suffering of stock exposed.
Many man who belongs to the church, makes
long and loud prayers, and thinks himself very
good and of eternal happiness. when he
knocks at heavens gate may fnd his way
barred with the skeletons of the poor brutes
which suffered persisted through his
neglect Besides the inhumanity of this practice,
the cost in dollars and cents to the farmers Of
this country would astonish them could they be
brought to how vast the sums thus worse
than thrown away. On most farms where the
stock SO treated comes out Of the winter tsprne
poor" and much of 1t fails to come through at
all, and the owner com plains of bad luck" and
''hard times" the food consumed is sufficient,
were warm barns provided, to maintain every
animal in fne condition and at profit. No
food is so efficient for keeping up bodily heat
or will do it SO cheaply as warm quarters, with
walls wind and frost tight. Cold kept outside,
food will be saved inside and the animals, spared
suffering. will render q paying return for what
is eaten. When we attempt to keep stock warm
by extra food, the ration must be repeated every
day, but warm stables, once provided. last many
years and pay many times over for the one out
lay. Animals were placed helplessly in mans
keeping and he should see that they are well
taken of, and it will pay him to do it, even
if obliged to sell one-half to provide means to
build good quarters for the other half.

Wheat for Poultry.
New England Farmer.


Wheat is one of the best grains for poultry
and, at present prices, one of the cheapest. Too
many poultry keepers make their hens live al
most exclusively on corn during the winter
when the ground is frozen or covered with snow,
so that the supply of insect food, scattering
seeds and green stuff is cut off. Fowls, like
most other animals, like variety Of food, and
it is good economy to provide them with several
kinds Of grain, cabbaees, turnips. or beets: be-
sides daily morning feed of warm dough made
of variety of ground grain, and an occasional
feed of refuse meat But if one kind of grain is
selected for the main dependence, let it be good,
sweet wheat 1t gives growth and egg material
above Any other grain. Oats are a little too
chaffy. rye is not usually liked we'll, Eor is bar
ley liked as we'll as wheat; corn is too fattenine
for laying hens, and is far inferior to wheat for
growing chickens,
